Jenna and I headed into town right away this morning to get my truck serviced and yell at the cell phone people. This phone that jenna has has been nothing but troubles. This is their last chance to get things right. The sales guy even said that if it wasn't working better this weekend they...

Very cool fish!

Chris - I think it's amazing that your kids handled things so cool and calm. That's so important and skills that they will use later in life So many people totally freak out at a time like that when the most important thing is to stay calm. I'm very proud of your kids!

Dawn - my day was great! Thanks! I'm reading one by one and thought I'd just chime in here right away. Hope Davy comes through fabulously and doesn't remember a thing. What kind of rabbit is he?

Yuky Kat! Sorry to hear that. Not much worse that tooth pain! Hope it gets much better very soon!

So nice to hear from you Dawn on your vacation/adventure! I still struggle to text on my phone:) Have not tried at all to surf the web. Enjoy your time away!

I always get sticker shock at the vet! It's almost more expensive than going to the people doctor! I try to use the "farm" vet any chance I can, they are a little cheaper.

It looks like we have a running theme of rain around here?! Wednesday night we had amazing storms! The power went out for about an hour. We got 1.75 inches of rain and high winds, tiny hail. Today they've got Tennis ball size hail on the SD Nebraska border! Crazy. It's raining again this...

Andrea - I do have some stuff that I can and need to put up around the garden. It's called plot saver. it's a ribbon type thing that you put up on fence posts around the perimeter of the garden or plot then there is this stuff that you spray on it. Smells kind of mentholish. Hot peppers work...

Clara - I have Linda time every morning after Mr. Wonderful goes to work and before I drag my butt off the couch to get to work :) this morning I drank two pots of coffee before I was ready to tackle anything :)

Dawn CW - I live in South Dakota, not far from Sioux Falls. We have an acreage, 30 acres. Hubby grew up on a large ranch in west river South Dakota. Where did you grow up? Were you involved in FFA? I know exactly what you mean about the good feeling at the end of the day. My MIL and I...

We are clear across the state from Sturgis 350-400 miles. But we are very close to the interstate so see lots of bike traffic.

Happy Tuesday! My back hurts! More pushing the tiller in the garden yesterday. But I'm finally winning the battle with the weeds! My MIL is going to come over this afternoon to help with the last of it! Then things will look great. I may have to take some pictures..... I wish the plants...

Sandra, Sorry to hear to hear that you had to deal with things at one of your stores. I hate that kind of thing! I've "had a lot to say" lately with one of mine as well :) So glad about your new job! Way to go!

Yes HOG is Harley Owner's Group. A bunch of them will be driving through South Dakota in the next few weeks for the Rally at Sturgis! It's unbelieveable the number of bikes on the roads during that time!

Jos - have fun at the fair! Our fairs will start here in about a month then I'm super busy with students and their livestock projects. Oh, and I LOVE fair food - bring on the funnel cakes!

Oooh, Chris - that bath sounds wonderful. I may have to try that. I'm feeling good, just using muscles that thought that I forgot about them. It's all good though, it's helping me get into shape for our trip to Sturgis at the end of the month!

Hello O's. I'm recovering from the weekend! Saturday we spent part of the day doing dirt work in the basement. Carrying five gallon pails of dirt out one by one. Yesterday we mixed cement and carried it down to the basement by five gallon pails to pour a cement pad for the new stairs we are...

Your life is certainly filled with new adventures with Davy in the house!
